Pick any number. If that number is even, divide it by 2. If it's odd, multiply it by 3 and add 1. Now repeat the process with your new number. If you keep going, you'll eventually end up at 1. Explain why you get 1 every time. I don't know why I end up with 1 every single time. Can someone help me please?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Because the process by itself will force the numbers to be eventually reduced to an even number whose half is always another even number. For example, if you start taking the number 3, the result will be 10; then, the result of 10 will be 5; then, the result will be 16. When you get 16, the result will be 8, then 4, then 2 and finally 1.

b) work out an estimate for the mean number of books bought.
please show the full working out.
Number of students who bought 0-4 books= 9
number of students who bought 5-9 books= 10
number of studenst who bought 10-14 books= 13
number of students who bought 15-19 books= 2
number of studenst who bought 20-24 books= 6
please show the full working out

Answers

Answer:

a) 15% b) 10.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.

Probability = number of expected outcome/total outcome.

a)Total number of student is the total outcome = 40

Expected number of outcome is the number of students who bought 20 or more books = 6 (number of students who bought 20-24 books)

Probability of those students who bought 20 or more books =  6/40 = 0.15

Expressing as percentage = 0.15 * 100 = 15%

This means that 15% of the total students bought 20 or more books

b) Mean is calculated using the formula [tex]\overline x =\frac{\sum fx}{N}[/tex]

f is the frequency

x is the midpoint of the class interval

N is the total number of students.

Check the attachment for the frequency table.

[tex]\overline x = \frac{410}{40}\\ \overline x = 10.25[/tex]

Mean number of books bought is 10.25

B is mid point of AC

that means,

The population of Greenbow, Alabama in 1995 was 200 people. Since then, the population has grown 2% per year. Model this situation with the proper equation and use that equation to predict the population of Greenbow in 2020.

Answers

Answer:

Equation is;

P = I(1 + r)^n

The population is 328

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we want to model the situation and use the modeled equation to predict population.

This follows an exponential pattern with similarity to the amount paid on a compound interest

Mathematically, we can have the equation as;

P = I(1 + r)^n

Where P is the population we want to calculate

I is the initial population in 1995 = 200 people

r is the rate of increase = 2% = 2/100 = 0.02

n is the difference in the number of years = 2020-1995 = 25

Thus the population would be;

P = 200(1 + 0.02)^25

P = 200(1.02)^25

P = 328.12

which is 328 approximately

Angle 5 and Angle 15

Answers

Answer:

It's 8 the answer is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

∠8 and ∠16 are corresponding angles with ∠12  

What is corresponding angles ?

the angles which occupy the same relative position at each intersection where a straight line crosses two others. If the two lines are parallel, the corresponding angles are equal

According to the question,

Given the diagram we have to find the angles which are corresponding angles with ∠12.

Those angles which are on the same side of traversal called corresponding angles.

By definition of corresponding angles the angles which are corresponding to ∠12 are ∠8 and ∠16. These angles lie on same side of traversal line.

Hence, ∠8 and ∠16 are corresponding angles with ∠12

Option 1 is correct.

I run a book club with $n$ people, not including myself. Every day, for $365$ days, I invite five members in the club to review a book. What is the smallest positive integer $n$ so that I can avoid ever having the exact same group of five members over all $365$ days?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

if we have n people and we want to do groups of 5, the total number of different combinations is:

[tex]c = \frac{n!}{(n - 5)!5!}[/tex]

find the smallest n such c > 365.

let's do it by brute force:

if n = 5, we have:

[tex]c = 5C_5 = 5[/tex]

if n = 6

[tex]c =6C_5 =6[/tex]

if n = 7

[tex]c = 7C_ 5= 21[/tex]

if n = 8

[tex]c = 8C_5 = 56[/tex]

if n = 9

[tex]C = 9!/(4!*5!) = 126[/tex]

so 9 is not enough, let's see N = 10

C = 10!/(5!*5!)  = 252

10 is not enough, let's see with 11.

C = 11!/(6!*5!) =  462

So you need at least 11 members in the club.

Then the minimum number of members such we have more than 365 combinations is 11 members

Client need al least 11 members in the club.

Permutation and Combination

According to the question,

Group of five members, the combination will be:

→ [tex]c = \frac{n!}{(n-5)! \ 5!}[/tex]

By using Brute force,

If n = 5,

c = 5,

C₅ = 5

If n = 6,

c = 6,

C₅ = 6

If n = 7,

c = 7,

C₅ = 21

If n = 8,

c = 8,

C₅ = 56

Now,

If n = 9,

→ C = [tex]\frac{9!}{(4!\times 5!)}[/tex]

      = 126

and, If n = 10,

→ C = [tex]\frac{10!}{(5!\times 5!)}[/tex]

      = 252

and, If n = 11,

→ C = [tex]\frac{11!}{(6!\times 5!)}[/tex]

      = 462

Then perhaps the minimal number of individuals required to have more than 365 possible combinations seems to be 11.

Thus the response above is correct.

what types of solutions does this equation have?

Answers

Answer:

Two imaginary solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to simplify the equation, we square root both sides. As the argument (value in the root) is negative, and we know that the square root function's domain is only positive numbers, we would have two imaginary solutions.

This would be positive/negative [tex]3i\sqrt{5}[/tex].

Another way to visualize this is by looking at the parabola's graph. Through algebraic manipulation, we know that the parabola is z^2 + 45. This parabola never crosses the x-axis. Therefore there are two solutions that are imaginary.

IS ANYONE GOOD AT CALCULUS? PLEASE HELP!!! The rate at which a certain radioactive isotope decays is given by = negative 0.0032 y, where y is the amount of the isotope after t days. After approximately how many days would the amount of this isotope in a sample reach 75% of its original amount?

Answers

Answer:

90 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

dy/dt = - 0.0032y

dy = -0.0032y dt

dy/y = -0.0032 dt

Integrating:

ln y = -0.0032t + c     where c is some constant

y = e^(-0032t) + e^c

y = A e^(-0032t)   where A is a constant.

At time 0 we can let y = 1 so in that case A = 1

When there is 0.75 of y left:

0.75 = e^-0032t

ln 0,75 =  -0032 t

t = ln 0.75 / -0032

t = 90.
